History [] Rhoda G. Lewin

Stereotypes For the first two periods the history of the Jews is mainly that of the Fertile Cresent. It begins among those people who occupied the area lying between the Nile, tigris and the Euphrates rivers. Surrounded by ancient seats of culture in Egypt and Babylonia, by the deserts of Arabia, and by the highlands of Asia Minor, the land of Canaan was a meeting place of civilizations. The land was traversed by old-established trade routes and possessed important harbors on the Gulf of Akaba and on the Mediterranean coast, the latter exposing it to the influence of other cultures of the Fertile Crescent.

The Bible States that The Jews are Gods chosen people, there said to be from the anciet people from israel.
